Re: SRP Rd 9 - Reds v Highlanders
What do you mean they've never been a top team? They were literally the top team in 2015. They weren't the top team that year, though, they got lucky They won the Super Rugby final. What criteria are you using? They were middle of the road team that year and managed to fluke a title run. Canes was ...

They deserved all three and were lucky one wasn't red. The first one was a joke, the second one was marginal, the last one wouldn't have been awarded if the other two weren't!

Re: The OFFICIAL Capt Hurricane Hurricanes vs Chiefs Thread - Super Rugby Round 8
Oh please stop this nonsense. Kirifi and Flanders came on when the Chiefs looked gassed out there because Aumua was breaking their defense apart. I would rather we finish strong and the fresh legs helped immensely hence the 6-2 split in the reserves. Shields Lakai and Iose DOMINATED that first half ...

Re: The OFFICIAL Capt Hurricane Hurricanes vs Chiefs Thread - Super Rugby Round 8
There is 2cm difference and they're both under 190m which is short for a loose forward now days. Kolisi is an absolute beast at the breakdown. Virtually every Soutb African who has played 7 since Juan Smith has been around 2m. Im failing to see what your point is. If you even had one to begin with....

Re: The OFFICIAL Capt Hurricane Hurricanes vs Chiefs Thread - Super Rugby Round 8
Lakai is basically the same height as Iose. South African 7 is the blindside. Numbers don't mean a whole lot in Saffa land. Kolisi plays a combination of both sides and Lakai plays similar to him. According to the Canes website Lakai is shorter than Iose There is 2cm difference and they're both und...

Re: The OFFICIAL Capt Hurricane Hurricanes vs Chiefs Thread - Super Rugby Round 8
For me Lakai is an 8 playing 7 and Iose offers even less at lineout than Savea. As good as Lakai and Iose have been Savea is a better 7 than Lalai and Savea is a better 8 than Iose. The major difference for me is the Canes tight five. The removal of the red head bloke at lock and the improvement of...

Re: The OFFICIAL Capt Hurricane Hurricanes vs Chiefs Thread - Super Rugby Round 8
That was a good hitout for the Canes after the bye. Chiefs forward pack was getting dominated up front early on and the physicality on some of the tackles were maasive.

Re: Hurricanes 2024. The Midget is gone!
Shields seems like a step backwards as a pick, no? At 32 now I'm not even sure he's among your best 3 loose forwards (Flanders/Kirifi/Iose, imo, with Lakai pushing hard for a spot). If he starts ahead of Flanders I'll be very disappointed from an ABs perspective. Kirifi or Jordie feel like the more...
